lode


Explanation:
fasta utgående = mother lode

from Wikipedia: In geology, a lode is a deposit of metalliferous ore that fills or is embedded in a fissure (or crack) in a rock formation or a vein of ore that is deposited or embedded between layers of rock.

Example sentence(s):
  • In more recent times, the inland glacier ice has eroded away the upper parts of the bedrock, causing boulder trails to form from the mineralisations with gold-bearing boulders in the moraine. These can be followed back to their source, the mother lode.
  • Mother lode is a principal vein or zone of veins of gold or silver ore.

agree  Deane Goltermann: Sort of, since 'lode' seems so old-fashioned and poetic. Seems to refer only to gold, and maybe silver. So if this is your context, then ...

Vein/outcrop/bedrock ore


Explanation:
Lode is ok in specific contexts, tho I'd prefer vein as more generally useful. Seam is generally for something bigger (stratum)

More pleasant reading from wiki below: where searching 'lode' finds the term used only in connection with gold.

Then there is bedrock ore: ore embedded in bedrock (see if you can open this link) http://11ips.laurentian.ca/NR/rdonlyres/5C18070A-7FE1-4F4F-8...

Found this one desribing your context; http://www.jstor.org/discover/10.2307/30064717?uid=3738984&u...

Google bedrock ore + outcrop -- somewhere to look in any case!
